New Product Introduction Operations

Our vision is to transform how the world uses information to enrich life for all .
Micron Technology is a world leader in innovating memory and storage solutions that accelerate the transformation of information into intelligence, inspiring the world to learn, communicate and advance faster than ever.
Role Overview
As a New Product Introduction (NPI) Product Lead within the Cloud Memory Business Unit (CMBU), you will lead end-to-end manufacturing and fulfillment execution for complex new-product sample demand across DDR, LPDDR, CXL-attached DRAM, GDDR and HBM-based memory products and solutions.
This role operates across the build-to-ship portion of the NPI execution chain, where material availability, manufacturing progress, yield, holds, finished goods, order readiness and logistics dependencies must be actively managed. You will organize cross-functional teams, expose blockers early, drive recovery actions and maintain momentum across sites and time zones.
The role remains grounded in NPI Operations: maintaining accurate demand and execution data, coordinating priorities, tracking builds against committed dates, managing exceptions and ensuring stakeholders receive a clear fact-based view of delivery risk and recovery.
What You Will Solve• Supply shortages, material constraints, stuck lots and unclear ownership that prevent builds from progressing to committed dates.• Low yield, excursions, holds, rebuilds, test constraints and site-execution issues that require rapid cross-functional recovery.• Mismatch between approved demand, finished goods, order information and shipment requirements.• Pricing, sales-order, release, customs, logistics and waybill blocks that keep available product from reaching the destination.• Execution delays caused by fragmented regional handoffs, incomplete status, slow critical issue or unclosed actions.
Core Responsibilities• Translate approved customer sample demand into executable build, recovery and fulfillment plans with clear quantities, priorities, dates and owners.• Track manufacturing progress against committed achievements, including material readiness, WIP movement, test completion, finished-goods availability and shipment readiness.• Partner with planning, manufacturing, test, quality and site teams to identify constraints early and drive recovery for holds, yield loss, excursions, rebuilds and missed build achievements.• Validate alignment among demand records, NPI planning systems, order information, product attributes and finished-goods availability before shipment.• Coordinate with Supply Chain, Customer Service, Pricing, Sales Operations, Sample Desk and Logistics to remove order, pricing, release, customs and delivery blocks.• Establish rapid blocker-management expectations, with named owners, due dates, recovery commitments and timely issue when resolution is not progressing.• Maintain end-to-end visibility from demand-line opening through build, release, shipment and waybill generation.• Provide concise, fact-based status on delivery risk, root cause, recovery plan, revised commitment and required decisions.• Create disciplined regional handoffs that preserve status, decisions, actions and accountability across time zones.• Use analytics and AI-enabled tools to improve supply visibility, identify data inconsistencies, prioritize aging risks and reduce manual reporting effort.• Drive lessons learned and process improvements that increase build-to-ship velocity, fulfillment reliability and execution scalability.
Required Qualifications• 5+ years of experience in semiconductor manufacturing, supply chain, planning, operations, logistics, NPI or a related role.• Demonstrated experience supporting new-product samples, qualification builds, production ramps or other high-priority manufacturing execution.• Working knowledge of semiconductor manufacturing flow, WIP, yield, holds, finished goods, order processing and shipment dependencies.• Ability to coordinate global manufacturing, supply, commercial and logistics teams and drive recovery without direct authority.• Strong analytical problem solving, operational discipline and attention to detail in high-volume workflows.• Effective written and verbal communication, including the ability to convert detailed execution status into clear commitments and customer concern requests.• Ability to operate across time zones in a fast-paced environment with changing priorities and schedules.
Preferred Qualifications• Advanced degree or equivalent experience in Engineering, Supply Chain, Operations or a related field.• Experience with memory products or complex semiconductor manufacturing and fulfillment flows.• Experience working across manufacturing sites, planning, customer service, pricing, logistics and sales operations.• Familiarity with planning and execution systems such as SAP, Teamcenter and Power BI.• Experience using data analytics or AI-enabled tools to improve supply visibility, recovery execution or operational decision making.
How Success Is Demonstrated• Approved demand progresses through build, release and shipment with clear ownership and fewer aged blockers!• Manufacturing, supply and fulfillment risks are identified early and supported by credible recovery commitments!• Holds, yield issues, order blocks and logistics constraints are resolved through a disciplined action and escalation cadence.• Stakeholders receive one accurate view of build status, delivery risk, recovery and revised commitment.• Recurring execution failures decline through stronger handoffs, standard work and preventive controls.
